2 Botanika kaj je to? veda o rastlinah (SSKJ) Barbara Vilhar: Splošna botanika PeF 2

3 Kaj je to - rastlina? Rastline in živali v mojem domu Spletna povezava: Zeleni škrat / Radovednež / Zakaj so rastline pomembne za človeka? Barbara Vilhar: Splošna botanika PeF 3

4 Kaj je to - rastlina? organizem, navadno z listi, cveti in koreninami (SSKJ) do sredine 20. stoletja: dve kraljestvi: rastline, živali Carl Linné: Systema naturae ( strani, 12. izdaja 2300 strani botanika: organizmi s klorofilom a (zelene rastline, vse alge, dinoflagelati, evglenoidi, nekatere bakterije) druge skupine bakterij glive (virusi) Barbara Vilhar: Splošna botanika PeF 4

11 Rastline delijo nekatere lastnosti z drugimi organizmi iz okolja dobijo energijo za svoje aktivnosti so sestavljene iz celic: ena celica ali več milijard celic se razmnožujejo se odzivajo na okolje, v katerem živijo so se razvile iz prednikov (evolucija, dedovanje) Barbara Vilhar: Splošna botanika PeF 11

12 Rastline imajo nekatere posebne lastnosti so evkarioti (jedro) so avtotrofni organizmi Barbara Vilhar: Splošna botanika PeF 12 fotosinteza, klorofil imajo celično steno, ki vsebuje celulozo so pritrjeni organizmi pomembne posledice za strategijo preživetja mnoge se razmnožujejo nespolno (vegetativno) in spolno imajo neomejeno rast celo življenje spreminjajo obliko svojega telesa
